ES and DF election procedures

In all-active multi-homing, the non-DF keeps the SAP up, although it removes it from the default flooding list. In the single-active multi-homing implementation, the non-DF brings the SAP operationally down. For more information, see ES discovery and DF election procedures.

The following show command output is an example status of the single-active ESI-7413 in the non-DF.
